Dinner

Grace has been wanting to get a second piercing. After Emma came over today we got busy. First on the agenda was a blind taste test. I told her, with great confidence, that I could definitely tell Diet Coke from other sodas. She brought over an assortment and I couldn’t tell! What?? I was super surprised but I still like Diet Coke best. I think my taste buds were overwhelmed with all the sodas and that the taste kind of lingered. Rob also tried, as did Abba. Abba did the best. 

We ate Ron’s pizza. Abba and Rob have a long running disagreement on which is best Ron’s or Marion’s. We had Marion’s earlier during our visit. 

Then we went to the mall and Grace got her doubles. They look very cute. 

Before we came Ethan had reached out to the Spanish ward elders to see if anyone in the ward could teach us how to make tamales. That evolved into us having the elders and the Martines family (from Mexico) over to teach us how to make enchiladas and Spanish rice and beans. It was really fun. We had a full house and dinner was fabulous. The rice was out of the world good and the salsa was surprisingly easy to make. 

It was fun getting to know them and sharing an evening and a meal with them. We had made desserts and then Yuvia made a dessert too so we had a table full of treats. 

After everyone left Ethan showed us videos from his mission. It was a good day.
